lest OATH REPEALED.-The Leg
lslature of Arizona Territory two
years ago enacted law, designed,
like the one in Idaho, to disfranchise
the Mormons. Gov. Zuick recon-
mended, to the Legislature this win
ter, the repeal Of the law, and said:
"lti dangerous innovation upon
that religious liberty which has been
the firm foundation upon which were
built the republican institutions of
Americas Our bill of rights says:
The imposition of no religious test
shall ever be required as a qualifca-
ton to any Office or pubic trust. The,
civil and political rights of no one
shall be enlarged or abridged Oh ac-
count of his opinions or belief con-
eernrng matter of religion The
ballot box is the freemans palladium,
not the assizes for test oaths of relip-
ious beliefs. A man may believe in
blgamy or polygamy, but until he
puts his belief into practice, he has
offended no law. BY rigid enforce
ment of the existing law against big
amy and polygamy, society is suffi-
GENTLY protected against these
crimes, and since the test oath dis
franchises all members of the Nor
mon Church, whether polygamists or
not, recommend it be repealed
The bill for repeal passed both houses
unanimously. If Gov. Zuick had
said that Mormonism is a dangerous
innovation upon that liberty which
is the foundation upon which were
built the republican institutions oil
America, he would have hit the facts
in the case fair and square betwee Fl
the eyes. Zuick CONSTITUTES s1relip
lous liberty to mean liberty to or
ganize to overthrow the very founda
tons of liberty. There is a limit be
yond which such organizations al
Mormonism will not be allowed t.
60, and the test oath is to keep then
within proper bounds. a man whc
has sworn allegiance to an organiza
ton of treason, in open hostility tc
moral laws and right view of liber
ty, which is not the granting Of spe
cial license for the commission o
crimes and the violation of laws tina
all others must obey-that man HA
offended law. If Arizona was ruled
; politically, by the head of the Nor
l mon Church, as Idaho has been, he
test oath would not have been re
pealed. Mormonsm has not game,
a firm grip on that Territory, and tn
necessity and demand for severe law
to paralyze its power for evil is no
; very great.

DETROIT, MICH, Nov. 23-It became
known for the first time to-day to few
persons that Ex-United States Senator
Jones OF Florida, who has for some unex
planned reason sojourned in Detroit for
two yesrs past, is practically q beggar
upon the streets, and but for the charity
OF friend would be without food or shell
ter. When Jones came here he was very
free with his money and gave lsvishly to
benevolent purposes. He boarded st the
best hotel until few months ago when
he was unable to pay his board. He then
went to cheaper house, and last night
his room was locked on bin and he slept
on the floor in the hall. He was observed
by man whom he had befriended in his
better days and was taken to his mansion.
Mr.. Jones is almost mental wreck. He
is pursued with the idea that some enc
mics whom he never names are following
him and that he will yet "down them"

Special to the Gazette.
DALLAS, TEX, Nov. 23.-A little son Of
Sawnie Robertson met with quite a seri-
GUS accident yesterday afternoon while
playing artilleryman. He found an old
six-shooter on the premises and securing
it to 3 tree by means of strings, he at
tached a cord to the trigger and, falling
to the rear, he could fire it in artillery
style. In pulling the cord, he, in his
boyish excitement, pulled the Wespon
around within rsnge Of himself, snd
when he fired the last shot it took effect
in bis left leg just above the knee, infict-
ing G severe but not danCerous wound.
It was quite painful, but the little mimic
soldier stood it like veteran. DR..
Thompson extracted the ball and dressed
the wound, and with careful nursing the
little fellow will soon be himself again.
This morning Jim Rsvell, q hsckdriyer,
sWOre out writ before Justice Kendall
for the arrest Of q Celestial named Chi
Chung, who runs little fancy store on
Elm street just east of the postoffice,
whom he charged with having shot
Of him with the intent to kill.
Cal Chung was taken into custody by the
| sheriff. He also made complaint that
RsveH shot ct him, but denies that he
fred any shot ST all. The other Cinnamon
insist that he did however, and thus the
matter stands. The shooting occurred a.
Chinese laundry on Ervsy street, be-
tween Main and Elm, and it appears that
chi Chung had called in to see his brother
| Cinnamon, when Ravell dropped in.
He and one Of the laundrymen had dis
pute, it is thought, about wash bill,
which was followed by several pistol
shots in rapid succession. The China
men were badly scared when a crowd
gathered, and when Chief Of Police
Arnold appeared they rushed out and
shook him heartily by the hand, saying:
| "Gladdee you cummee; feardee hurtee."
They clung to the chief who assured
them they should not be harmed. In the
course Of time the courts may find out
something about the case, but it will re-
qulre q great desl OF adroitness and
patience TO do it.

A HOT CAMPAIGN.
The Georgia Prohibition Election the Most
Exciting Ever known.

The Georgia Prohibition Election the Mcst
Exciting Ever Known.
ATLANTA, GA, Nov. 23-An election in
this city On the question of adopting for
smother two years the law prohibiting the
sale Of liquor will take place on Saturday,
when over II, 900 votes will be cast. The
campaign, as it stood last
aight, is somewhat singular
and deploIable. There is 8 total
suspension of business, and merchants as
well as employees stand in groups on
street corners wildly gestiCulating over
he merits of the question. Nearly every
business firm in the city is about equally
divided. The women are thoroughly
stirred up, and walk the streets with blue
badges on their breasts. In fact the
women were last night the center of the
fight, having declared their purpose of
having lunch stands at the different polls
where white ladies will wait upon negro
men who will vote the prohibition ticket;
Old people shake their heads ct this
innovation, but a prominent colored man
says of it: "I see in it the greatest DAN
ger. White ladies are inviting this famil-
iarity, and yet if one of our young men
emboldened by this misunderstanding
speak to one of them, next day he would
stand a mighty good chance CT getting
lynched."
Monday night young gentleman, es-
corting two young ladies from the thea
rer, happened to remark that he was
"Wet." At once they dropped his arm,
dismissed him, and went home by them.
selves. This social ostracism is SO pro
nounced that its effects will be felt long
after prohibition shall have become a
dead issue. Both parties have parades
every night this week. On Friday night
each party has announced monster meet
| ings, which will probably last all night
SO that the voters may be st the polls
\ early.
